Forums - Sales - How would you react if. . .

That's one hell of a hypothetical. I imagine that for something that drastic to happen, there'd be a pretty good reason. So I guess if that were to happen my reaction would be to want to buy a PS3.



I'm a mod, come to me if there's mod'n to do. 

Chrizum is the best thing to happen to the internet, Period.

Serves me right for challenging his sales predictions!

Bet with dsisister44: Red Steel 2 will sell 1 million within it's first 365 days of sales.

If that happened, well I'd end up rubbing it in all the Wii fanboy's faces from all the smugness they have given PS3 owners in the past year.

Then I'd probably be scolded by people because I'm not playing nice to the Wii fanboys.

My pokemon brings all the nerds to the yard. And they're like, "You wanna trade cards?" Damn right, I wanna trade cards. I'll trade this, but not my charizard.

Xbox360 fans like me seem to be more subdued - glad to see it selling well in NA but giving up hope in Japan.


 360 fans are so used to losing that they expect it. 


I'm usually very forgiving when it comes to ban threats... but after thinking about every post of yours that I have read, you offer absolutely nothing to the forum.

If you don't have anything to contribute to the thread, shut the hell up. Thank you.

 Well, that was in reference to the sales of the 360 in Japan. I don't know anyone who follows sales that expects the 360 to start winning in Japan. Microsoft is certainly doing better than last generation. Thanks for your input, it is certainly appreciated.

I honestly believe PS fanboys deserve all the smugness they get. I frankly am tired of them bitching about things MS or Nintendo do now. Especially considering the fact that when Sony did the same thing in the past they either said nothing or bragged about it. The same people the throw a hissy fit everytime a former Sony exclusive hits 360 or Wii are the same people that were begging for X-box and Gamecube exclusives to come to PS2. In short, PS fanboys have been jackasses for over a decade, don't whine about the boomerang coming back and smacking you in the face now. Especially when its only hit you once and the guy beside you has been struck a dozen times.



X360 owners don't have delusions that the X360 will magically take flight on a white pegasus and ascend to the heavens. We have something called "intelligence". After all, we're the ones that play the more, funner, better games.

We're subdued because we have the best lineup of games, and know, and they sell well, and their fun. When you have a backlog of 10+ AAA titles this year to play, you don't always have time to complain about the next magical PS3 game that'll help the system out, or complain about how reviewers jip Wii games out of decent scores. We don't care because we get great games.


The world can change easily, and we've gone from utter Wii dominance worldwide (outselling the X360/PS3 combined every week) to the X360 and PS3 giving the Wii a great run for it's money, since SMG bombed (in relation to first/second week expectations, HW sales).



Back from the dead, I'm afraid.

Imo, the younger gamers will go nuts all over the internet, from Nintendo and Sony side.

The grew up at the same time that video games did will not care.

I personally don't give a toss who wins this xmas, but i would be surprise if Sony wins (you have to admit that 2007 hasn't been the best PR and Marketing year for Sony)

I owned every single console in the past, apart from the Xbox, because it didn't appeal enough to me to buy it earlier on its life time; and when I was planning in getting a cheap second hand one the 360 came out.

This generation, I've got a Wii, and I'm really happy with it. I'm planning on getting a 360 this Xmas as it has right now the best line up of games and incredible online service (little details like being able to replay to a message from a friend without quitting it make it the best navigational console of them)

I'll get a PS3 way later on; first because there are no games that appeal to my tastes, second it HAD and incredibly stupid price (right now is reaching a normal one) and third, I don't like the attitude of putting Blu-rays on the house of average Joe, making him believe that he needs that expensive technology, because if don't don't see things in 1080p you're a loser.

If they release another part of ICO and Shadow of the colossus, I'll be first in the queue getting one.

As a gamer, I don't care who wins this Xmas.

As a consumer, I wouldn't like Sony winning with the PS3, because it would proof them that they can do anything not related to games, charge for technology that nobody needs and be successful.

Changes happen because people complaint, that's how we got paid overtime, health insurance and all those services which make our life better.

I think that companies shouldn't win all the time as it will force them to improve their products and ethics.

Sorry for the long post, I'm bored to death at the office. :p
